Bleacherreport has an article about the possibility of the Jets looking to trade Darelle Revis because they are not sure they will be able to resign him.

Quote:

The New York Jets, fresh off an exhaustive hunt for new general manager John Idzik, will explore options to deal star corner Darrelle Revis this offseason, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.

Revis, whose contract voids after the 2014 season, is set to earn $6 million in 2013 (between salary and bonuses), and owner Woody Johnson has strong reservations about the ability to extend Revis's deal, the sources said.

Now obviously we will need some assurance we can resign him. However, Revis is 27 years old and still in his prime. He and Haden would form the best CB duo in the league by far. We would be able to shut down almost every teams passing attack by taking out there top two targets. This would allow Horton to go crazy developing blitz schemes using any number of positions._________________

I think I would offer #6, our 3rd and 5th this year, and a conditional pick next year (either a 2nd or 3rd depending on how many games he plays) for Revis and #9. They can probably get better offers, but I don't want to give up the farm for him._________________

Anybody thinking of trading the #6 pick in the draft for a 30 yo CB coming off an ACL...and going to want HUGE money......LOL, should have their head and shoulders examined very closely...._________________-A team is built through the Draft.
